Potential Trades [Warning: Reading this thread may self-destruct]

[rpfc 28,966]

One from the grapevine at work.

Pick 3 & our 2nd round pick to St Kilda in exchange for Pick 1 & their 3rd round Pick.

Thought process is we agree to not select McCartin 1st up allowing him to fall to St Kilda and we can take Petracca & Brayshaw 1, 2 assuming none of Dangerfield, Shiel or Treloar are interested in coming over. We also then have an additional 3rd round pick to land Frost while St Kilda get 3 picks inside the top 25. They'll trade one for Jaksch with the threat of playing hard ball and taking him in the PSD if GWS don't play ball.

If they are so keen on McCartin then why would we bother?

Just take Petracca at 2 and keep Pick 21.

[MadAsHell 4,217]

If we don't paly ball it may potentially mean they bid on Billy, or they take Petracca Pick 1 as they may feel compelled as he's clearly the best player in the draft.

JKH? get out.

yep, all those should be trad-able IF the right offer comes along. JKH is handy but too light & lacks top speed to have a real impact in our team as it is currently.

I've kept the real honest competitors as must keeps, & the talented young who haven't had time yet. such as Hogan, Salem... Others talents are in the trade-able column as they haven't shown enough yet or they could be value as trades for gun picks. Not to eject them, but to advance the list.

most haven't shown enough hunger yet, to get our on-field culture rolling uphill towards the direction of a strong & willing one, that we can all be proud of.

I think they'll draft Petracca.

Reiwoldt is getting on but in last few years they have also lost Goddard, Dal Santo, Jones & Hayes, also Montagna is closing in on 31.

I think they'll try and swoop on Clark or trade a forward in.

Word is they'll take Petracca on the street but anything is possible this time of year.

Kind of crossed my mind too.

I don't get this one.

If the Saints want McCartin they take him at 1 we take Petracca and Brayshaw 2 and 3.

Under your deal we trade 1 for 3 and 2nd round for 3rd round but promise to not take McCartin

So we take Petracca at 1 and Brayshaw at 2 McCartin to Saints at 3.

So out of that deal with downgrade our 2nd round pick to a third round pick and pile the pressure of a number 1 pick on a kid we would have got anyway.

Something is missing

[MadAsHell 4,217]

Not saying I agree with it, just one that I've heard around the office today from 4 different people.

Having said that 2 of them are Saints supporters.

Not sure that several have had that much opportunity to show said hunger.

Need to give those who have been on the list one year a chance to get in a decent pre season.

Harmes,Hunt,JKH,King have not had any chance to shine yet and we need to give this group that chance, after all they were brought in by the current football department.

Agree, they will all be retained.

[Lord Ivanhoe 311]

As I just mentioned on the Sam Frost thread, that deal is done (To MFC) barring any left field offers. I also was told Tom Lonergan is off to Bulldogs, Levy Casbolt has obviously resigned at Carlton and it was confirmed that Essendon Players are seriously under siege from most clubs.

Jake Carlisle has almost $1Mil/year offers from Freo & Western bulldogs and even though he wants to stay (most of them want to stay) at Essendon If he was on $400k/year, can you refuse $1MIl???? eg Scully/GWS. Adelaide also want him but not sure if they offering the same $$$$

As I mentioned Goldsacks girlfriend is trying to get him back to Adelaide despite the talk of him resigning with Collingwood. Was told that Players partners often throw spanners into the works and this was a frustrating issue with player managers

Couldnt get any other details about the Dees. (oh yeh it was mentioned that Rivers may be on shaky ground at Geelong??, personally not sure why as i thought he was one of their best in their last final)

Hopefully Dangers partner thinks about what she could do with the 8 mil for 7 years then

[Lord Ivanhoe 311]

Would be a dream but the same source has not heard anything regarding Dangerfield to MFC but my contact is close to a player manager. Not sure who manages Dangerfield

[Redleg 42,048]

One from left field.

Offer pick 3 if we get it for Chip compo, to Swans, plus another player/pick for Mitchell and Reid.

Then get into Ben Reid, who is injury prone, but with ability like MC. Tell Reid we will give him a fair contract and take a risk, which Pies might not be prepared to do and give him the opportunity to play with his brother. Then swap MC and player/pick for Reid and maybe Lumumba.

Use pick 2 for Petracca or Brayshaw. Stretch at 2nd or 3rd round and add Frost and then with remaining picks, draft or trade for outside mids.

That is a real change to the side. It is a dream.

its good until you wake up isnt it !!

[Demon3 2,541]

lots of "talk" about discontent at Adelaide.. Coach in trouble, players unhappy. Bit of a watch this space one I thing.

[DomTysonsLeftFoot22 20]

Bit of chat about my mate Toby Green. Depending on what happens at court on his birthday later this month, he is a chance to return home. He is a bit mischievous at times but an accumulator of the ball and has a massive tank.

Heard that we are über active with Adelaide and the Danger Danger trade is not that out there considering what we are offering.

As previously posted Clark for Lamumba plus some change likely to happen but for AFL assistance if he was to walk. Yet to decide what that is until commission meeting on the 22nd this month. That's when we will find out about priority pick also.

Same with attempting to swap picks 2 and 4 around with GWS with a player (watts) for possibly a sheil/treloar. They are in love with Petracca but we would want guarantee we would still get Brawshaw.

St kilda taking Petracca would throw a spanner in our works.

Roos taking off to Hawaii mid trade week so expect the dees to be busy early.

Sam Frost likely done deal for a shuffle of picks.

The blease, tapscott, Strauss currency will be speculative as they were 1st rounders and like Kane Lucas, may find a traded home. Expect not much more than an old pair of boots like we got for Cale Morton.

Brisbane are all over Peter Wright at pick 3 so don't be surprised if they come to play come trade week. Midfielder and a pick not out of the question for pick 3.

Love the statue of big Jim today. It is great to be a demon!

Heard the same about senior players at WB. Not happy with McCarthy, apparently.

[Whispering_Jack 31,299]

Blease and Tappy not happy at Melbourne either

Sando sacked today.

[bing181 9,436]

lots of "talk" about discontent at Adelaide.. Coach in trouble ...

Interesting if true. That whole generation of coaches who were hired 3 years back: Neeld, Watters, Sanderson ... perhaps not working out as planned? The only one from that year who seems to be the real deal is McCartney, and he was probably the least fashionable/credentialed of any of them.

Just goes to show how hard it is to predict how coaches will turn out, though perhaps confirms that the best ones serve a long apprenticeship. Usually.

[Demon3 2,541]

That happened quickly. See you Later Goodwin.
